Charming Cottage in Cley

A charming semi-detached cottage positioned within the ever-popular village of Cley, Dolphin Cottage presents an appealing blend of character, comfort and thoughtful modernisation. Having been both a much-loved permanent residence and holiday home over the years, the property has been carefully updated by the current owners to create a welcoming and versatile space suited to weekend escapes or full time living.

The ground floor centres around a generous open-plan reception area, designed with both relaxation and sociability in mind. This light filled space offers flexibility for dining and entertaining, flowing seamlessly into a stylish modern kitchen, newly fitted in 2025 by Simply Kitchens of Holt, with contemporary units and finishes. To the rear, a bright conservatory provides an additional reception area, enjoying views over the garden and creating a natural connection between inside and out.

The private rear garden is a peaceful and sheltered setting, ideal for enjoying warmer days or hosting guests, with a sense of privacy that enhances the overall appeal.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, with the added benefit of an en-suite shower room to the principal bedroom, providing comfortable and flexible accommodation for family and guests. The loft is boarded and fitted with Velux windows, offering excellent additional storage space.

Further benefits include a useful en-bloc garage, providing valuable storage or parking, alongside the advantage of a chain-free purchase.

Perfectly positioned, the cottage is just a two minute walk from the quay and within easy walking distance of the beach, making the most of Cley’s sought-after coastal setting.

Dolphin Cottage represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented home within one of North Norfolk’s most desirable villages, equally suited as a lock-up-and-leave retreat or a permanent residence.
